Artisans Revolution in Tile Draws 15 Tile Setters to Milwaukee
Artisans Revolution in Tile (ART), the Premiere Tile Artisans Training event, was held in Milwaukee on June 19-23. Sponsored by the National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA) and Laticrete International, the program also had support from Tile Tools, ARTO, Gemini Saw Co., Inland Craft, Floor & Decor, EMI Mesh Mount Paper and Tape, as well as loans of equipment from other industry members.
The ART program was geared to provide experienced installers with information and hands-on training to design, produce and install their own hand-cut custom art features, according to industry standards. In addition to developing the skills needed to offer hand-cut artisan features to clients, the program equipped participants with a transference of skills and methods that elevate all tile installations.
